Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 8, 2026

PinJolt ("we", "our", or "us") operates the PinJolt application and website at pinjolt.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our service.

1. Information We Collect

When you use PinJolt, we may collect the following types of information:

• Pinterest Account Data: When you connect your Pinterest account via OAuth, we receive an access token and refresh token that allow us to read your boards and create pins on your behalf. We do not store your Pinterest password.
• Google Sheets & Drive Data: We access Google Sheets and Google Drive files that you explicitly configure in the application to read pin content (titles, descriptions, URLs) and pin images.
• Pin Content: We store pin metadata (titles, descriptions, alt text, URLs, board assignments) and publishing history to manage your scheduling queue and track published pins.
• Authentication Data: We use session cookies to keep you logged into the PinJolt admin dashboard.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information solely to provide and operate the PinJolt service:

• To read your Pinterest boards and create pins on your behalf
• To sync pin content from your Google Sheets
• To retrieve and attach images from your Google Drive
• To manage your pin scheduling queue and approval workflow
• To track pin publishing history
• To authenticate your access to the admin dashboard

3. Pinterest API Data Usage

PinJolt accesses the Pinterest API v5 with the following permissions:

• user_accounts:read — to identify your connected Pinterest account
• boards:read — to list your Pinterest boards for board mapping
• pins:read — to retrieve pin performance analytics (impressions, saves, clicks)
• pins:write — to create pins on your connected Pinterest boards

We only access Pinterest data necessary to provide the scheduling service. We do not sell, share, or use your Pinterest data for any purpose other than operating PinJolt as described in this policy.

4. Google API Data Usage

PinJolt uses a Google service account to access Google Sheets and Google Drive. We only access files and folders that you explicitly configure within the application. We do not access any other data in your Google account.

Our use of Google API data complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

5. AI-Powered Content Generation

PinJolt uses third-party AI services to generate pin content on your behalf:

• Anthropic (Claude API): Your article URLs are sent to Anthropic's API to generate pin titles, descriptions, and alt text. Anthropic processes this data according to their privacy policy.
• OpenAI (Image Generation API): Your sample images and article URLs are sent to OpenAI's API to generate pin images. OpenAI processes this data according to their privacy policy.

AI-generated content is always presented to you for review and approval before being published to Pinterest. You provide your own API keys for these services; PinJolt does not share a single API key across users.

6. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored securely using Cloudflare's infrastructure:

• Pin content and history are stored in a Cloudflare D1 database
• OAuth tokens are stored securely in Cloudflare's D1 database infrastructure
• All data is transmitted over HTTPS
• Session cookies use cryptographically random identifiers and are marked HttpOnly and Secure

We implement reasonable security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction.

7. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information or content data with third parties, except:

• With Pinterest, to create pins on your behalf (as authorized by you)
• With Google, to read your configured Sheets and Drive files
• With Anthropic and OpenAI, to generate pin content using your provided API keys (as described in Section 5)
• If required by law or to protect our legal rights

8. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active and you use PinJolt. Pin history is maintained to prevent duplicate pins and provide publishing records. If you disconnect your Pinterest account or delete a site from PinJolt, associated tokens are removed immediately.

9. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Disconnect your Pinterest account at any time through the PinJolt dashboard
• Delete your site configurations and associated data
• Request a copy of your stored data
• Request deletion of all your data

10. Cookies

PinJolt uses a single session cookie to maintain your login state. This cookie is essential for the service to function and expires after 30 days. We do not use tracking cookies, analytics cookies, or any third-party cookies.

11. Children's Privacy

PinJolt is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
